    Dont sell him forest.. Not on your nelly.. If youve got money.. No point selling him.. If owner doesnt sell anyone it will be a strong strong move.. Come on forest.. Hes gonna be the lad all the kids have on they shirt. Playing football with my mate having good players at forest are some of my happiest memories. I had goalie top with mark crossley.. Dont even know what life is anymore... But i was happy then.. Dont let the kids love players then sell em for a few quid.. Build something.. Balance the books of course.. But you cant sell a 30 goal per season guy.. If it was me and i had plenty wonga.. Theres not a chance. They cant stop his shots.. No matter what haha hes enjoying playing for Forest..

    Forest have to move on the fringe players, and then make an assessment

    • @yowhy4305
      @yowhy4305 Před 33 minutami

      Fringe players for the 17th Team in the league are rarely of interest to teams who can improve their salary. You have a 2-3-4 year contract at 40k per week/ 2 million per year. Your employer doesn't rate your work. Another employer wants you but can only afford half the salary and your new workplace isnt as nice/prestigious. You staying or going?

    Great vid guys. Some clarity was required across the fanbase. One thing that intrests me, at what point does the club say, we've reached the maximum inestment for ROI? Tom has mentioned 200million, so we alreday know that and it will provide 38-40k seats, so is the intention of the club to expand on that? why not say so? "We want to build a 50k stadium" because in that case the City Ground wont ever reach that

    Why do we need to sell our best players when we have so many dead-wood that we can sell? We have put a half decent team together, to take away the most talented players and sell them, doesn't sound like a BIG CLUB that wants to progress in the PL!!! I'm very disappointed with all this transfer speculation. COYR!!!

    • @yowhy4305
      @yowhy4305 Před 48 minutami

      Players who have performed will be of interest to bigger clubs with £ to spend, will have ambitions to play at the highest level they can, will obtain better salaries. Players who have performed average or lower will only be of interest to clubs of lower status, who can only offer lower salaries. Thus if you have 2-3-4 years left on your contract you have to decide to earn less at a lower level or stick where you are, hoping to get better opportunities/luck/ new coach.... Other option is loan market but of course that's short term. If Forest want to sell an average or underperforming player and will accept a low offer to clear him off the squad (to make way for a new one), the player still gets a say whether they want to go and accept lower salary. If Forest want to release a player, he is still entitled to salary for duration of contract either as a lump sum or an Arter type (run down your contract and stay home). Effectively then Forest are suffering for signing too many underperforming players on long term contracts.

    I'm disappointed that regarding ticket prices the question wasn't asked as to why they didn’t rise by the same percentage across the whole ground. Mine has risen by 38% whereas ones in the next block and generally across the ground have only risen by around 20% or less although I am in the stand with the worst facilities in the ground, which are certainly not fit for purpose. I have renewed my season ticket that I have had since they built the PT stand as really the choice was renew it or lose it. It actually shows loyalty counts for nothing!

    I really dont get why fans are trying to portray Tom Cartledge or the owner are the bad guys. Is our owner perfect? No he is not has he made mistakes? Yes he has,but there are a lot worse out there than Mr M. He pays the bills on time,no winding up orders the staff all get there wages when they are meant too,he has spent the best part of £400m of his own money since buying the club. Constantly loans the club money and then converts that money into shares so we don’t have to pay it back. During Covid when clubs were laying people off we didn’t we kept all our staff due to Mr M loaning the club £35m to function and then wrote it off. He has never taken a penny out of our club and now wants to spend even more on us to bring us into the 21st century. He doesn’t want to change the name of the club or the colour of our shirts he just wants us to be successful. Ask Reading fans who they would prefer as their owner. Their current one or Ours. Remember Fawaz,or Wray or Scholer. Jeez,back him for christs sake.

    Matt, Is the land around BBC Radio Nottingham at their Island Site, owned by the City Council and has got a lot of land around it that could possibly work, their is apparently a council site that lies on the site also and as it is closer to the City would be far better than Toton for the Dan's as I know that without any transport, I would love to get a season ticket, however would never be able to get there to Toton however the Island Site would be do able as it is so close to the City! Could you find out if they believe that would be a suitable site too? I agree with you regarding the purchase of the Freehold as however long we stay at the WFCG, we would no longer be having to pay rent anymore thus making a permanent saving and not only that even if we did then move to a different Stadium, the ground would belong to the club and would be appreciating in value too instead of having no monetary value in our old ground unless we did buy it. That is why I believe it would be a no brainer in buying that freehold because if we did then sell it, it would be worth more than the £10M being charged! At the end of the day too, if the council needed somewhere to move their places to they could then come to Forest and buy the old ground once the New Stadium had been built! Alternatively, if they were interested in building a hotel like some of the other Major Premier League clubs then that could be an option or alternatively build a new training facility would an be another possible option! Unless there is room at the Island Site which I hear is still meant to be fully available and therefore could be suitable for everything on the Forest wish list! Hence due to its close proximity to the Current WFCG, both locations could work together as parts of our sporting facilities. So what do you think to that idea Matt, also if you get the opportunity would you pose those questions to anyone of the higher ups at the Club such as the Chairman or even Miltiadis Marinakis or Mr Evangelos Marinakis himself? I would love to hear what you think personally about what I have suggested? Kindest regards, Mark from Arnold! Hope to hear your thoughts very soon, many thanks, Mark!
